We offer a number of float trips in the ALLEGHENY NATIONAL FOREST. All trips start in Tionesta. You will sign in and get your paddling gear, then we transport you to your ramp upstream. From there you are on your own to explore, fish, float, and have fun. You arrive back at our ramp in Tionesta, at your car. All times given are the paddle-time.

This beautiful stream travels through the heart of the Allegheny National Forest. It is floatable in the Spring, usually from the end of March through most of May. The level on this stream varies with the spring rains and thaw. It covers 33 miles from Sheffield to the Nebraska Bridge. We check the water levels and decide where to launch your boat based on the time you want to spend. Fishermen like to spend two or three days fishing this stream in the Spring. Trout is stocked each year. We must transport you up into the forest for this trip, then return to pick you up at the end of your float. Camping is along the shoreline.
